The Uses of Aminomercuric chloride
Anti-infective, topical.
The Uses of Aminomercuric chloride
Mercury ammonium chloride is an inorganic mercurial compound used in creams as a topical anti-infective agent (formerly used in the treatment of psoriasis and in skin-lightening formulations).
General Description
A white crystalline solid. Corrosive to the mucous membranes. Very toxic by inhalation and ingestion.
Air & Water Reactions
Slightly water soluble. Decomposes in hot water.
Reactivity Profile
Aminomercuric chloride is incompatible with acetylene, ammonia, chlorine dioxide, azides, calcium (amalgam formation), sodium carbide, lithium, rubidium, copper .
Health Hazard
The general symptoms are those of mercury poisoning, developing rapidly after ingestion but more slowly after low repeated exposures. Contact with eyes causes irritation and ulceration. Skin contact may cause dermatitis. Ingestion causes pain, vomiting, metallic taste, ulceration of mouth and stomach, pallor, and rapid, weak pulse.
Fire Hazard
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Smoke may contain toxic mercury compounds.
Safety Profile
A poison by ingestion. Moderately toxic by skin contact. Explosive reaction with halogens or amine metal salts. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of Cl-, NOx, and Hg. See also MERCURY COMPOUNDS.
